there is a surface comparison between the swiss cheese settlements in palestine and the bantustans of apartheid. it sort of looked like israel was creating bantustans in the west bank, granted. however, the comparison was strictly based on the geography, not the motives, and it was a surface deep analysis that missed the point of what israel was doing, which was occupying land in a way that isolated palestinians from each other and prevented palestine from claiming it. that has essentially no similarity to the bantustans, which were intended as segregated areas for coerced and forced labourers.
